Froggy made me do it!! I saw Froggy's flounce on her Blog and couldn't stop thinking about this Sweater. She sent me a note and prodded me to make it... and that was it. The pattern is from a Colinette leaflet called "Comfy Cozy," and the yarn is Colinette Point 5 - colorway Venezia. The ruffle goes ALL the way around the sweater, and the pattern calls for it to be knitted in pieces and then sewn up. I got one honkin' big circular and did the whole thing at once.
I made this in about 3 weeks while Marc was traveling for work. I can't remember where this pattern came from, but I upsized it a bit since it didn't have an XL sizing. The yarn was Jo Sharp Silk Road Ultra, and it was absolute heaven to work with.
This was the second sweater I made. The pattern is from a Schoeller Stahl Pattern book and the yarn is the recommended yarn - it was Schoeller Stahl Sunshine.
Hello. I am Elfin and I am the reason she now needs glasses. My ruffles are so pretty, but beware... casting on hundreds and hundreds of teeny tiny stitches... well, beauty is pain.
